Street Closure In Taylorsville Beginning Today

A block of 1st Street will close in Taylorsville beginning today. The block is located between the Alexander County Courthouse and the former Dayton property.

The former Dayton Chevrolet Building will be demolished this week according to County Manager Rick French. It’s hoped that the building will be leveled and the rubble hauled away before the end of the year.

Barricades closing the block are in place until the demolition project is completed.
